Ubuntu 18.0.4.6 LTS and Odoo 15.0 CE - unusable Python version installed (3.6.9)

[Rad0van]

The script itself works fine but the Python version being installed is Python 3.6.9. Attempt to start Odoo fails with:

root@myserver:/odoo/odoo-server# ./start.sh 
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/odoo/odoo-server/odoo-bin", line 5, in <module>
    import odoo
  File "/odoo/odoo-server/odoo/__init__.py", line 19, in <module>
    assert sys.version_info > (3, 7), "Outdated python version detected, Odoo requires Python >= 3.7 to run."
AssertionError: Outdated python version detected, Odoo requires Python >= 3.7 to run.

I guess I can fix this manually but for less skilled user this could ba taken care of. Not sure what the best approach would be though. Depending on Odoo version select the appropriate Python version?
